We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving human performance through objective evaluation, applied research, and evidence-based solutions that bridge the gap between system design and human capability.
Spinnaker Institute is a trusted third-party assessor connecting system design, human factors, and workforce performance. Our team applies HSI, training design, and applied research expertise to deliver objective analysis and measurable results. As a vendor-neutral organization, our recommendations always serve the mission—not market interests.
We evaluate the complete human–system environment—people, tasks, technology, and training—to reveal the real drivers of performance, risk, and readiness.
Through HSI methods and data analysis, we pinpoint the true source of performance gaps—whether design flaws, procedural issues, staffing challenges, or training limitations.
We deliver practical, evidence-based solutions that focus resources where they will have the greatest impact, from training enhancements to system or process redesign.
A leadership team with deep expertise in human performance and training design.
